Excursions and Immersions Week 1

We have officially welcomed our Session 1 arts-X-pressers, and everyone is already getting to know each other! We've got some awesome artistic opportunities lines up for the week including three adventures out to some terrific performances in Orange County!

Tonight we we are excited to attend The Strawberry Bowl tonight for their production of Hamlet! We will be immersed into the world of Shakespeare, which will surely be a unique opportunity under the stars at this outdoor amphitheater!


Then tomorrow afternoon, we will attend the matinee performance of A Chorus Line at the Chance Theater in Anaheim. It will be so fantastic to see so many art forms come together for this show!  





Finally, on Monday we will head down to Laguna Beach for the Festival of the Arts and Pageant of the Masters where we will do some hands-on art activities as well as explore the theme of Partners in the artwork that is showcased in the performance. 

Feel free to click around on all of their websites as we are so thankful for these amazing organizations and arts partners who bring artistic opportunities to the community!
